What has sparked this interest in ePortfolios and school libraries? Partly the introduction of a Personal Learning Plan for South Australian senior secondary students, combined with increasing discussion on ePortfolios in Australia and worldwide, and the ongoing debate about 21st century information literacy.
Information literacy 2.0: experts or expats?Pru Mitchell
This presentation (rescued from the archives) was presented at the 2007 School Library Association of New Zealand Aotearoa Conference. It challenges library staff to reconsider their role in information literacy and how to ensure students and teachers are equipped to navigate the new information landscape. It asks for experts in contemporary information literacy issues, such as online identity, digital rights, social networking, personalisation and collaborative content, rather then expatriates continuing to do things as they did in ‘the old country’?

The Application of Statistical Design of Experiments for Mathematical Modelin...realjimcarey
A full factorial statistical design was used to mathematically model the process for growing the E. coli cell line (BL21(DE3)/ pET17b::gfpuv. The experimental factors of mixing (RPM), temperature, glucose concentration, and tryptic soy broth concentration were included in the shaker flask study. Optical density measurements were used as the means of quantifying cell growth. During the exponential growth phase, the process showed a statistically significant dependence upon mixing, temperature, and tryptic soy broth concentration. The interaction between mixing and temperature was also found to have a statistically significant effect upon the exponential growth rate. Interestingly, the glucose concentration did not exhibit a statistically significant effect upon this growth phase. Optical density measurements taken at seven individual time points throughout the experiment were also used to model the system during different growth phases. It was interesting to note that mixing initially exhibited a negative effect upon growth rate, but as the growth rate accelerated, it had a positive effect. In the early growth phase, tryptic soy broth concentration had the largest positive effect, while temperature dominated most phases of cell growth. As expected, higher temperatures favored higher growth rates. From these data, mathematical models were constructed that may be used to predict the growth rate within the experimental bounds explored in this study.

Marty Marshman and Kate Reid collaborated to show how they use LibGuides to serve the specific needs of their very different school communities. LibGuides is a highly adaptable web publishing platform for organising and sharing library resources and online content with library patrons. Marty discussed his use of LibGuides with reference to how he collaborates with teachers in developing LibGuides, the Standards addressed when using LibGuides and showed examples of LibGuides designed for secondary teachers and students. Kate showed examples of guides designed for primary and secondary students and teachers, demonstrated how easy it is to create and edit pages, and also looked at the online community of LibGuide users.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
